Purchase recordings

To date I have recorded one composition, a light classical piano piece called Classical Romp that I wrote before starting my degree course. It is 15 minutes long and is in three parts (or “movements”). The pianist is Fiona Chua.

Part 1: Exuberance (3:25)
This first part is my celebration, my excitement, of writing simple melodies and having them played. It starts with a very simple melody with lots of bounce, and the whole part reflects the buzz I got composing it.
> Listen to 30 second sample

Part 2: Reflections (7:01)
I guess that says it all. There are some lovely reflective melodies for chilling out - feel the stress slowly seeping out of you.
> Listen to 30 second sample

Part 3: Classical Romp (4:34)
More melodies: simple, lively. I had a ball writing this music! And Fiona had a ball playing it!
> Listen to 30 second sample

Classical Romp does not need explanation - there are no moments of grandeur or deep meaningful thought or philosophical meanderings. Just melodies to make you happy.

This could also be transcribed for a chamber ensemble.

Variations on the theme of Old MacDonald had a Farm. This should suit professional or amateur groups, and has a fun (and funny) ending. The computer-generated clip is of Variation III.
